Analyses of over 40,000 documents, computer vision papers and downstream patents spanning four decades indicates the extent of this surveillance and the rise of obfuscating language that helps to normalise such approaches. New research has underlined the surprising extent to which pervasive surveillance of people and their habits is powered by computer vision research - and shone a spotlight on how vulnerable individuals and communities are at risk. Analyses of over 40,000 documents, computer vision (CV) papers and downstream patents spanning four decades has shown a five-fold increase in the number of computer vision papers linked to downstream surveillance patents. The work also highlights the rise of obfuscating language that is used to normalise and even hide the existence of surveillance. The research, conducted by Dr Abeba Birhane and collaborators from Stanford University, Carnegie Mellon University, University of Washington and Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2), has just been published in leading international journal Nature. Dr Birhane directs the AI Accountability Lab (AIAL) in the ADAPT Research Ireland Centre at the School of Computer Science and Statistics in Trinity College Dublin. Dr Birhane said: "This work provides a detailed, systematic understanding of the field of computer vision research and presents a concrete empirical account that reveals the pathway from such research to surveillance and the extent of this surveillance." "While the general narrative is that only a small portion of Computer vision research is harmful, what we found instead is pervasive and normalised surveillance." Among the key findings were that: 1. The field has evolved linguistically, with a trajectory away from generic papers in the 1990s towards a heightened focus on analysing semantic categories and humans and their behaviours in the 2010s 2. Surveillance has been increasingly hidden by jargon and obfuscating language that distracts from people being at the heart of the surveillance 3. Rights to privacy and certain freedoms are under threat Additionally, the work indicated the top institutions producing the most surveillance are: 1.Microsoft; 2. Carnegie Mellon University; 3. MIT; 4. University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; 5. Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the top nations are: 1. US; 2. China; 3. UK. Dr Birhane added: "Linguistically the field has increasingly adapted to obfuscate the existence and extent of surveillance. One such example is how the word 'object' has been normalised as an umbrella term which is often synonymous with 'people'." "The most troublesome implications of this are that it is harder and harder to opt out, disconnect, or to 'just be', and that tech and applications that come from this surveillance are often used to access, monetise, coerce, and control individuals and communities at the margins of society." "Due to pervasive and intensive data gathering and surveillance, our rights to privacy and related freedoms of movement, speech and expression are under significant threat." However, the researchers stress that a major, more hopeful takeaway from the work is that nothing is written in stone, and that this large-scale, systematic study can aid regulators and policy makers in addressing some of the issues. Dr Birhane said: "We hope these findings will equip activists and grassroots communities with the empirical evidence they need to demand change, and to help transform systems and societies in a more rights-respecting direction." "CV researchers could also adopt a more critical approach, exercise the right to conscientious objection, collectively protest and cancel surveillance projects, and change their focus to study ethical dimensions of the field, educate the public, or put forward informed advocacy." The published paper can be read at https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-08972-6 after publication. An embargoed PDF copy is available on request in advance. Dr Birhane ha...

In this episode, Lisa and Jennifer discuss:AI as a formal academic major and how it intersects with other disciplinesStrategies for aligning student strengths and interests with suitable college majorsHow to assess readiness and fit for AI-related college programs and careersCultivating adaptable, future-proof skills in a rapidly changing tech landscapeKey Takeaways: While only a dozen U.S. universities currently offer formal AI majors, these programs are rapidly evolving and can be categorized into technical, interdisciplinary, or business-oriented tracks, with new offerings emerging every year.Pursuing an AI degree means committing to rigorous foundational coursework in advanced math (like calculus and linear algebra), computer science (such as algorithms and data structures), and electives in machine learning, ethics, and human-centered disciplines.Students unsure about committing to AI can gain clarity and assess fit by engaging in real-world experiences like hackathons, data-driven research projects, or intensive summer programs such as PROMYS, which challenge problem-solving and data interpretation skills.Even if a formal AI major isn't available, students can still prepare effectively for AI careers by strategically choosing AI-related electives within computer science or data science programs that align with their interests and long-term goals.“Don't think about AI-proof skills. Think about future-proof skills, because whatever the field, whatever the time, whatever the place, learning those skills that transcend a specific discipline is what will take you forward.” – Dr. Jennifer StephanAbout Dr. Jennifer Stephan: Dr. Jennifer Stephan has held various roles across top colleges and universities, including professor, academic dean, and board of admissions member. She holds a BS degree in electrical engineering from Johns Hopkins University and an MS and a PhD in electrical and computer engineering from Carnegie Mellon University. She is currently the Dean of Academic Advising and Undergraduate Studies for the School of Engineering at Tufts University and the founder of Lantern College Counseling, where she offers college admissions services, college success coaching, and expert support grounded in her proprietary Deep-Fit™ approach, developed through decades of experience.Episode References:Jennifer's Blog, Best Colleges for Artificial Intelligence (AI) MajorsUnlock the Truth about Admission by MajorEpisode #172 Building Math Confidence for Better Career Options with Ben Orlin#149 Boosting STEM Student Success Through Math Contests with Vida JohnGet Lisa's Free on-demand video: How-to guide for your teen to choose the right major, college, & career...(without painting themselves into a corner, missing crucial deadlines, or risking choices you both regret). Connect with Dr. Jennifer:LinkedIn:Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

As the global race to 6G heats up, telecom providers, governments, and tech companies are investing billions to advance the next generation of hyperconnected infrastructure. European operators urge regulators to release more spectrum to stay competitive, while U.S. programs like the USDA's ReConnect have funneled over $1 billion into rural fiber backhaul.

In this Artist Exploration Curtis Holland (Broadway's The Great Gatsby) and Director of MTCA, Charlie Murphy discuss;

As the global race to 6G heats up, telecom providers, governments, and tech companies are investing billions to advance the next generation of hyperconnected infrastructure. European operators urge regulators to release more spectrum to stay competitive, while U.S. programs like the USDA's ReConnect have funneled over $1 billion into rural fiber backhaul. Meanwhile, companies like NVIDIA, T-Mobile, and Cisco are developing AI-native 6G stacks, embedding intelligence into every layer of the network. The stakes are enormous: success could enable real-time autonomous vehicles, remote surgeries, and city-scale sensor networks.But with so many threads to weave together—from fiber backhaul to AI-driven edge compute—the critical question emerges: How do we build a wireless ecosystem capable of supporting the demands of tomorrow's hyperconnected world?On this episode of Wavelengths by Amphenol Broadband Solutions, host Daniel Litwin sits down with Swarun Kumar, the Sathaye Family Foundation Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University and Director of the WiTech Lab.

They haunt our days and chill our dreaming nights, to paraphrase Emily Dickinson. There's not a population on earth that does not have its own unique monster stories to tell to frighten, but also to instruct on the nature of good and evil, right and wrong. But what happens when monsters get out of control, when the monstrous imagination starts to bleed over into the real world? What are the effects of monsters on real people's real lives?

In episode 204, Coffey talks with Rosalind Chow about the distinct roles of mentorship and sponsorship in advancing careers and building more inclusive workplaces. They discuss the distinction between mentorship (which helps grow the mentee) and sponsorship (which seeks to change how others see the protege); how sponsorship functions like marketing or PR campaigns for high-potential employees; the four types of sponsorship - creating, confirming, preventing, and protecting; why sponsors risk their own credibility and reputation when advocating for others; how sponsorship doesn't require formal hierarchical relationships but depends on trust and status; how to become more "sponsorable" by being a top performer with clear values and compelling personal story; the risks of having the wrong sponsor or appearing as the "teacher's pet"; and how sponsorship creates inclusion by ensuring high performers are seen, valued, and given opportunities regardless of their background or circumstances. Good Morning, HR is brought to you by Imperative—Bulletproof Background Checks.

To obtain the recertification information for this episode, visit https://goodmorninghr.com.  About our Guest: Rosalind Chow is an Associate Professor of Organizational Behavior and Theory at Carnegie Mellon University, where she studies the power of social hierarchy and its impact on diversity and inclusion efforts within organizations.  Her forthcoming book, The Doors You Can Open (PublicAffairs, April 8, 2025) distinguishes the concept of sponsorship from mentorship. While mentorship can change mentees for the better through valuable coaching and encouragement, sponsorship takes it one step further — sponsors can change the social environment around their proteges by actively advocating for, raising the social visibility of, and protecting them. Put simply, while mentors act on mentees, sponsors act on external observers – audiences - to change how they see proteges.  We don't just have the ability to change other people; we also have the ability to change other people's relationships with one another. This ability - the power we have as sponsors - is something we can leverage to better ourselves, other people, and our communities. Rosalind Chow can be reached athttp://www.rosalindchow.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/rosalind-chow-6b25541b0/  About Mike Coffey: Mike Coffey is an entrepreneur, licensed private investigator, business strategist, HR consultant, and registered yoga teacher.In 1999, he founded Imperative, a background investigations and due diligence firm helping risk-averse clients make well-informed decisions about the people they involve in their business.Imperative delivers in-depth employment background investigations, know-your-customer and anti-money laundering compliance, and due diligence investigations to more than 300 risk-averse corporate clients across the US, and, through its PFC Caregiver & Household Screening brand, many more private estates, family offices, and personal service agencies.Imperative has been named a Best Places to Work, the Texas Association of Business' small business of the year, and is accredited by the Professional Background Screening Association. Mike shares his insight from 25+ years of HR-entrepreneurship on the Good Morning, HR podcast, where each week he talks to business leaders about bringing people together to create value for customers, shareholders, and community.Mike has been recognized as an Entrepreneur of Excellence by FW, Inc. and has twice been recognized as the North Texas HR Professional of the Year. Mike serves as a board member of a number of organizations, including the Texas State Council, where he serves Texas' 31 SHRM chapters as State Director-Elect; Workforce Solutions for Tarrant County; the Texas Association of Business; and the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce, where he is chair of the Talent Committee.Mike is a certified Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR) through the HR Certification Institute and a SHRM Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP). He is also a Yoga Alliance registered yoga teacher (RYT-200) and teaches multiple times each week. Mike and his very patient wife of 28 years are empty nesters in Fort Worth.   Learning Objectives: 1.       Distinguish between mentorship (developing the individual) and sponsorship (changing others' perceptions of the individual) to provide appropriate support for high-potential employees.2.       Practice the four types of sponsorship - creating visibility, confirming positive impressions, preventing negative associations, and protecting during criticism - to advance deserving talent.3.       Recognize that effective sponsorship requires risking your own credibility and reputation, making it essential to sponsor only high performers whose values align with your own and the organization's goals.

Please take up space—because if you wait for the perfect moment, you may never begin.” “Even small, everyday actions can make someone feel seen and valued—and that makes a big difference.” “My story begins in India, where I was raised in a household deeply influenced by design. My father is an architect and an urban designer, so I was surrounded by drawings, construction sites, and conversations about design.” “I was struck by the messy beauty of Indian urban life.” “As a first-generation immigrant, navigating a new country, new people, new experiences—it was exciting... and kind of scary.” “India is like a melting pot of different cultures and settlements. I realized how good design can elevate your life—by giving access to resources like healthcare and education.” “This role of design was highlighted for me early on, and I knew I wanted to help people shape their lives through it.” “Given how the world is changing—with data science, sustainability, and public policy touching everything—I wanted to explore how those forces impact design.” 

In Driven: The Race to Create the Autonomous Car (Simon & Schuster, 2022), Alex Davies tells the enlightening and significant story of the effort to create driverless cars and the intense competition among tech heavyweights such as Google, Uber, and Tesla to move this technology forward. Autonomous vehicles (AVs) have been one of the most hyped technologies of recent years, but early promises that they would quickly become common place have not borne fruit. Alex Davies set forth the twisted paths of this technology's evolution from its genesis to the current moment. The idea began with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), which aimed to create a land-based equivalent to the drone, a vehicle that could operate in war zones without risking human lives. DARPA established “Grand Challenges” that enticed future-oriented thinkers including amateurs and students to help drive the technology from fantasy to reality. Carnegie-Mellon University and other universities played a major role. The technology got the attention of Silicon Valley companies like Google and Uber. Next arriving were the major US automakers, GM and Ford, who initiated their programs of their own to commercialize the technology, and Chinese companies also showed an intense interest. As road testing went forward, however, the challenges became far more apparent. The difficulties of traversing diverse terrains under varying weather conditions without a driver came out to be far more daunting than expected. Progress was made but in no way as fast as the developers of the technology hoped. The early enthusiasm of the key players dissipated as they came to realize that AI-assisted driverless transportation faced formidable barriers. This book provides fabulous insights into the key characters in this story and how they struggled with a technology that was not ready for rush-hour driving It is a fast-paced, exciting account of how autonomous technology emerged, the main players, the conflicts between companies, and state of the technology today. The book provides the reader with a genuine feel for how real happens. The writing is fantastic because of the emphasis on that details that come from the many conversations that Davies had with people at the center of the story.

In Driven: The Race to Create the Autonomous Car (Simon & Schuster, 2022), Alex Davies tells the enlightening and significant story of the effort to create driverless cars and the intense competition among tech heavyweights such as Google, Uber, and Tesla to move this technology forward. Autonomous vehicles (AVs) have been one of the most hyped technologies of recent years, but early promises that they would quickly become common place have not borne fruit. Alex Davies set forth the twisted paths of this technology's evolution from its genesis to the current moment. The idea began with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), which aimed to create a land-based equivalent to the drone, a vehicle that could operate in war zones without risking human lives. DARPA established “Grand Challenges” that enticed future-oriented thinkers including amateurs and students to help drive the technology from fantasy to reality. Carnegie-Mellon University and other universities played a major role. The technology got the attention of Silicon Valley companies like Google and Uber. Next arriving were the major US automakers, GM and Ford, who initiated their programs of their own to commercialize the technology, and Chinese companies also showed an intense interest. As road testing went forward, however, the challenges became far more apparent. The difficulties of traversing diverse terrains under varying weather conditions without a driver came out to be far more daunting than expected. Progress was made but in no way as fast as the developers of the technology hoped. The early enthusiasm of the key players dissipated as they came to realize that AI-assisted driverless transportation faced formidable barriers. This book provides fabulous insights into the key characters in this story and how they struggled with a technology that was not ready for rush-hour driving It is a fast-paced, exciting account of how autonomous technology emerged, the main players, the conflicts between companies, and state of the technology today. The book provides the reader with a genuine feel for how real happens. The writing is fantastic because of the emphasis on that details that come from the many conversations that Davies had with people at the center of the story.

As estrogen drops, our midlife brains go through a lot of changes. The activity in our dopamine network declines, which can leave us going from highly motivated to “meh.” We can experience bigger cortisol spikes and have elevated levels of the stress hormone longer. We can end up feeling constantly stressed out and in a doom spiral we can't quite escape. And it doesn't exactly help that many of us are also firmly entrenched in the most demanding period of our lives. This week's guest, cognitive neuroscientist Therese Huston, PhD, is coming to the rescue with a host of simple–and quick–ways to boost our dopamine, keep cortisol in check, and help our midlife brains be their best.Therese Huston, PhD, is a cognitive neuroscientist at Seattle University and the author of four books. She's always asking, “How can we remove the pesky obstacles that get in the way of smart people?” Her latest book, Sharp: 14 Simple Ways to Improve Your Life with Brain Science, offers science-backed actionable strategies, many of which take 5 minutes or less, to help you make the most of the brain you've got. Therese received her MS and PhD in cognitive psychology from Carnegie Mellon University. She completed a prestigious post-doc in cognitive neuroscience at the Center for the Neural Basis of Cognition and earned a degree in Organizational Leadership at Oxford University. She frequently gives talks and runs workshops for organizations like Microsoft, Amazon, Morgan Stanley, Strava, and the Cleveland Clinic. She also loves a good 5K, especially when the rain takes a pause in her hometown of Seattle.

Most of us dislike networking. At its best, it's exhausting. At its worst, it can feel inauthentic, even manipulative. But what if it didn't have to be that way? What if, instead, we could focus on helping others in ways that, in the long run, benefit us, as well? Rosalind Chow is an associate professor of organizational behavior and theory at Carnegie Mellon University. She's learned that when we use our status to sponsor others, we gain status and sponsorship for ourselves. Her findings can fundamentally change how we think – and feel - about networking. In this conversation, I talk to Rosalind about her book, The Doors You Can Open: A New Way to Network, Build Trust, and Use Your Influence to Create a More Inclusive Workplace. It's an inspiring playbook for helping others – and ourselves.

On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we are treated to an inspiring conversation with Carylyne Chan, a startup founder, investor, and advocate for autonomy and entrepreneurship. This episode is part of the "Creator Capitalist Conversations" miniseries, which emphasizes the importance of taking control of one's career and life. Carylyne's journey from a challenging upbringing in Singapore to becoming a successful entrepreneur in various sectors, including AI and blockchain, offers valuable lessons for anyone looking to carve their own path. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   Getting to know Carylyne Chan Carylyne's story is one of choosing herself rather than waiting to be chosen. As we go further into the episode, we dive into the emotional and psychological aspects of making significant life changes, particularly the leap from traditional employment to entrepreneurship. Carylyne begins her story by recounting her upbringing in Singapore, where she faced significant challenges, including a turbulent family life. At the age of 14, she took her first internship at the National Environment Agency, which sparked her interest in understanding how people work and the importance of teamwork. This early experience laid the foundation for her entrepreneurial spirit.   Carylyne Chan and her Leap to Entrepreneurship As Carylyne transitioned from high school to college, she continued to pursue her passion for entrepreneurship. She participated in hackathons and collaborated with friends who shared her interests. This led to the creation of a startup focused on AI chat summarization before it became a mainstream concept. Their journey took them to an accelerator program in Hawaii, where they worked tirelessly to grow their business. Carylyne then discuss the emotional challenges that accompany the entrepreneurial journey. She highlights the importance of recognizing when one has outgrown their current situation and the courage it takes to make a change. She believes that the biggest risk is not quitting a job that no longer serves you but rather staying in a life that feels unfulfilling.   Discovering Her Superpower The conversation shifts to the concept of identifying one's unique strengths or "superpowers." Carylyne acknowledges that her path to self-discovery has been complex and filled with trial and error. Initially, she viewed herself as an operational person, someone who gets things done. However, as she navigated through her first formal startup, she realized that her skills extended beyond operations to include marketing, design, and leadership. Christopher and Eddie discuss the significance of emotional intelligence in Carylyne's success. They highlight her ability to remain calm amidst chaos, a skill that has been honed through her upbringing and experiences. Carylyne's capacity for rapid synthesis—quickly learning and distilling complex information into actionable narratives—has been a cornerstone of her work as an advisor and entrepreneur.
